👀👀 Did you know you could provide feedback in your notes using info from the CL? Did you know you could animate that feedback?! Check out this #DesmosBuildAlong inspired by @kurt_salisbury's work to learn how. youtu.be/gFPf6YA8QK0 #iteachmath #MTBoS @AlgebraDesmos @Desmos

Hi #MTBoS, We are adding lots of teacher tools, to make it easier to assign & evaluate work activities.graspablemath.com. First up (& available now!): If you upload a class roster, you can see a list of your students, including those who *haven't* joined. #iteachmath #middleschoolmath

All over the world we are focused on "social distancing", but what we really mean is "physical distancing". It is important that we stay socially connected during the physical distance. #physicaldistance #backtogetherbetter #tlc2020

👀Let's look at inverse functions and relationships. This @Desmos activity does not use their CL. If you feel intimidated by the CL remember you can still build engaging assignments without NEEDING the CL. 🤠#MTBos #iteachmath #NISDDL
